PGDmC: Vectored!

[Ingemar]

The ship and objects will be more visible against the tunnel as I am planning on making them 'glow

A few creative shaders help a lot, not least some recursive filtering. I have that on my "might do" list, which means that I don't have a chance to include that, I must make my game playable first. It makes a lot of sense here, as a combination of retro and modern styles.

Thanks mate

I am pretty sure I can't use shaders or recursive filtering in the engine I am using, but maybe in the future

I am going to use some textured lines to put the 'glow' into it...

Here is a short video of the ship moving around the tunnel:

looks good but that's a pretty low frame rate you've got there.

That is due to the video capturing - it drops the frame rate quite a bit! mutter...mutter...

The actual game frame rate is higher; ~ 50 to 60 FPS

Here is a new screenshot - I am firing triple-shot blasts at asteroids



With one button, I can fire normal blasts (1, 2, or 3 shot blasts - does 1, 2, or 3 hits of damage), or a missile blast (does lots of damage!)

It depends on the time the fire button is held down as to whether a normal blast, or missile is shot - keeps the button count down for the competition!

I can destroy asteroids, but not much else is happening yet; no explosions and other effects (or enemies)...I will get there LOL

cheers,
Paul
